GeoSteer System
make or model, making it easy for drivers to become familiar with the controls if the system is installed on multiple vehicle
types and makes.
To make installations simple and reliable, many vehicle-specific installation kits have been designed to fit each individual
make and model. These kits are available for vehicles that come from the factory with a factory installed steering system (ex.
Steer Ready, CAN Bus, or ISO Ready) as well as options for those vehicles that need a complete steering kit installed. Even if
there is not a vehicle-specific kit available for the vehicle, properly trained installers can often use a custom installation kit to
connect the GeoSteer system to the vehicle. Specific instructions for the vehicle installation kits are provided with the
installation kits. Refer to those instructions when installing the vehicle kit.
Note: The list of supported vehicle-specific kits is always being expanded. Contact your GeoSteer dealer for the latest list of
vehicle-specific installation kits to see if the vehicle being installed on has a released kit.

Accessory Kits
The GeoSteer system is compatible with optional accessory kits that can be ordered and installed to provide additional features
and capabilities. The primarily reason to install an accessory kit is to provide a radio modem link with a Base Station or an
OmniSTAR demodulator for OmniSTAR corrections. These accessories are not required for all installations and some are not
available in all locations. Order only the kits that are required to provide the accuracy level and communication needs required
for the installation. The accessory kits available at the time of this writing are:
• GS-900 – 900 MHz radio modem for North America and Australia
• GS-OmniSTAR – OmniSTAR demodulator for world
• GS-410 – 410-430 MHz radio modem for world
• GS-430 – 430-450 MHz radio modem for world
• GS-450 – 450-470 MHz radio modem for world
• Remote Engage Foot Switch – Remote Engage foot switch that can be attached to the GeoSteer Main Harness to allow the

all the parts that are supplied with each kit.
Note: The list of accessory kits is always being expanded. Contact your GeoSteer dealer for the latest list of accessory kits.
